Mary Sue #JHerbin #Clairefontaine #Creapen

I’ve been playing around with brush pens a lot lately. I’m not doing too bad, but as with everything practice makes perfect, and there are still times were I’m not getting the results I want.

Normally I do abstract or non-objective work, but it occurred to me that I might get better results if I start doing more realistic work with the brush pen. Not as in photo-realism, but by drawing clearly recognizable things. Sometimes you need to switch things up so your brain will re-activate and make it easier for you to break old habits.

This gal’s a figment of my imagination, not based on anyone in particular. In writing, a Mary Sue is a female character who is written as perfect. She can do no wrong, has a beautiful singing voice, unusually striking eyes, never makes mistakes. She walks into the room and takes over because everyone immediately realizes her intelligent perfection.

So I thought I’d make her a Mary Sue. She must be. I mean just look at her fashion sense! Lol!
